DIY French Toast in a Mug
http://www.chelseacrockett.com/wp/wp-content/uploads/2016/03/chelsea-crockett-french-toast-in-a-mug.jpg

Making meals in a mug is one of my new specialties. One I think will come in handy in college when I don’t have an oven at my disposal! Today’s mug recipe is a deliciously easy take on French toast! It is super quick and super delish.

Ingredients:

• 1 piece of buttered bread
• ¼ cup milk
• 1 egg
• 2 TBSP of syrup
• 1 tsp ground cinnamon
• Pinch of salt
• 1 TBSP of chocolate chips
• Powdered sugar and cinnamon sugar (totally optional, but totally recommended!)

In a microwaveable mug, mix the egg, milk, syrup, cinnamon and salt until well combined. Cut the bread into squares that are bite sixed. Add the bread to the mug and press the pieced down so they are covered with the liquid. Add the chocolate chips to the mug and stir them into the bread mixture. Sprinkle the cinnamon sugar on top and then microwave the mug for 2 minutes, stopping every 30 seconds so it doesn’t spill over the mug. Let the mug cool about 1-2 minutes, then sprinkle powdered sugar on top.

Enjoy your easy peasy mug French toast!

XOXO, Chels

5 Free Ways to Feel Beautiful

5 Free Ways to Feel Beautiful
http://www.chelseacrockett.com/wp/wp-content/uploads/2016/03/chelsea-crockett-5-free-ways-to-feel-beautiful.jpg

Let’s face it, it costs a pretty penny to feel pretty these days. Girls spend gobs of money on makeups and lotions and hair products to make themselves feel beautiful. Why spend your hard earned cash on those things when you can feel beautiful for free? Here are 5 ways to do just that.

1. Call your mom or best friend to have a chat: These are the two people that will build you up and remind you of what a beautiful person you are.
2. Get dressed up for dinner: Here is where you can get yourself all done up. Do your hair, put on some lip gloss, and go out to dinner with the girls.
3. Laugh as much as possible: A smile is the most beautiful thing you can wear.
4. Perform a random act of kindness: Your personality’s beauty will make you shine. Plus, you will feel like a million bucks because you helped someone else.
5. Go on a walk or run outside: Go to a nature trail and just soak in the beauty of nature. Also, the exercise will make you feel refreshed and, well, beautiful.

Being beautiful doesn’t always mean getting all done up (although that can be fun sometimes J ). It can be something as simple as having a good laugh and feeling yourself smile. Beauty isn’t skin deep!

XOXO, Chels

The Importance of Finding a Christian Boyfriend

The Importance of Finding a Christian Boyfriend
https://www.chelseacrockett.com/wp/wp-content/uploads/2016/03/Chelsea-Crockett-Christian-Boyfriend.jpg

Dating is a tough process. Whether you’ve dated someone for a week or a year, you know how hard it can often get. I’ve always been told the importance of finding someone who is on the same page as you physically, mentally, but most important, spiritually. Being in a relationship that revolves around God is a priority that every Christian should consider.

1 Corinthians 13:4-5 says, “Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It does not dishonor others, it is not self-seeking it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs.” Then again in verse 7 it says, “It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres.” There are so many verses in the Bible that give us direction on how love and relationships should be. Dating someone who is in the Word knows that your relationship should be patient, kind, free of envy, etc. Of course, another perk to seeking a Christian boyfriend is being on the same page physically. Setting boundaries is a very important step in a relationship. It saves you a lot of stress, pain, and temptation!  

I came across a quote online that “a Christian relationship is not the same thing as a relationship revolving around Christ.” This mindset changed my viewpoint on how a Christ-like relationship should be. Find someone who shares your values and wants to not only better themselves for you, but more importantly for God!

Love, Chelsea

How to Rock Group Photos...Every Time

How to Rock Group Photos...Every Time
http://www.chelseacrockett.com/wp/wp-content/uploads/2016/04/chelsea-crockett-how-to-rock-group-photos.jpg

Prom and graduation are just around the corner, and with both of these comes one thing….group pictures! We have all had that awkward group-photo experience where everyone is confused about what they are supposed to be doing with their hands, if they should be squatting or standing, and “guys, are we smiling or are we being serious?” Here are a few tips on how to look supa fierce in every group pic.

1. Get in sync: Not Insync, like the band, in sync like as in the same pose! One of the keys to a good group is to make sure you are all on the same page pose wise.
2. Keep up the candids: I looooove candid pictures. They let your personality shine through! Just because it is graduation doesn’t mean you have to stand stiff and serious! Throw your hat, have a laugh, and hug your friends.
3. Squat it out: Once you have mastered the “squad squat” you will never have trouble taking group pics again. When you need to fit a bunch of buds into one pic, file into a few rows, then squat your tush down.
4. Pop a knee: An easy way to add some sass and attitude to a group pic is to do a little pop of the knee. A knee pop can actually help fit more people into the pic if you are standing diagonally!

Now go rock those group photos! Stay fierce.

XOXO, Chels

What"s the Deal with Instagram?

What"s the Deal with Instagram?
http://www.chelseacrockett.com/wp/wp-content/uploads/2016/04/Chelsea-Crockett-Instagram.jpg

My guess is that you have heard about Instagram’s new update. When I first heard about it, I was a little confused and a little perturbed. If you aren’t familiar with what’s up with Insta, here is the lowdown.

So, Instagram is altering its algorithm. It will reportedly be changing the way that users see posts from other people. It will prioritize some people’s posts over others, and in order to have your posts prioritized, people have to “turn on your notifications.” The thing is, this change isn’t happening for everyone just yet, so it has people pretty confused. The feature is actually still in its testing phase and is only out to a select number of Insta users at the moment. So, what will happen when the change happens to your account? Your feed will order the posts that it thinks you care about the most first, meaning it will show you the pictures from people whose photos you like and comment on the most. This change has pros and cons. The big “pro” is that you will get to see the people you want to see the most front and center in your feed! Buuuut a con is that you could miss posts from people whom you do not interact with that often but still want to keep tabs on or newer friends. Instagram says that it is working on getting this update right by doing testing, so hopefully by the time it reaches us it is in tip-top shape!

How do you feel about this new update? I am still trying to figure out how I feel myself.

XOXO, Chels

Curology Skincare: What Worked for Me!

Curology Skincare: What Worked for Me!
https://www.chelseacrockett.com/wp/wp-content/uploads/2016/04/Chelsea-Crockett-Curology.jpg

The amount of different brands and products I’ve tried to clear up my acne is endless. It seems like all of my money is being used for the same results! I recently uploaded a video that talked about a brand that FINALLY cleared my acne! I thought I’d tell you all a little more in depth how these products can work for you, too :).

First comes first, checking out their website. After learning a little about the company, you’ll probably (at least I did!) want to start ordering your products! You have to begin by taking a medical questionnaire. Curology wants to know as much about your skin and what your skin goals are as possible! It’ll ask you detailed questions about your skin and medical history.

Step 2 gets even more personal! They’ll want you to upload photos of your skin and your acne/breakouts. Your healthcare provider will review and examine them to pick the right products for your skin type specifically. The third part of the process is receiving your prescription such as the one above. They ship your products right to your front door! They say to apply them once every night before going to sleep.

You can track your improvement by uploading videos and discussing your progress with your healthcare provider. You can even update your products to keep up with your improvement. Let me know if you decide to try it out for yourself! It’s definitely worth it!

Love, Chelsea

Is Makeup with Skincare Benefits Worth Buying?

Is Makeup with Skincare Benefits Worth Buying?
http://www.chelseacrockett.com/wp/wp-content/uploads/2016/03/Chelsea-Crockett-Makeup-with-Skincare-Benefits.jpg

Recently in the world of makeup, more and more brands have come out with products that not only serve the purpose of making your eyes pop or covering up acne but actually eliminating breakouts and helping your pores! A lot of avid makeup-wearers are skeptical of the idea of makeup with skincare benefits, but I’m here to help clear up some of the confusion!

Some brands live up to their promises more than others. A lot of brands use skincare benefits to promote their products, when in reality they simply work just the same as regular products. With that being said, there are also brands that stay true to their promises! Sometimes the only way to find out is to try it out for yourself. Some products will work differently for other users. If you don’t want to spend money on trying it, read reviews about the product. I never used to do this, but it’s actually extremely helpful!

Although some makeup products actually do help with skincare, these in no way can replace your other skincare products such as face wash, moisturizer, medicine, etc. This makeup should just aid in the process of helping your skin, not take on the full job. A lot of products contain SPF, which is an amazing ingredient that can benefit your skin tremendously. Simply even using a small boost of SPF can prevent rays from damaging your skin.

Have you tried out makeup with skincare benefits? If so, give me your take on it below!
